Thomas and Alito dissented only on the lack of standing issue, but made it clear that they would have ruled against Texas, et. al.

To explain the statement by Alito and Thomas: This is totally separate from the merits. They think the Supreme Court is required to hear suits between states, so they think they can’t just deny the filing. But they also clearly say they would NOT grant relief to Paxton et al.
